Gets packed and you may have a long wait for a table, but it's worth it. Interesting menu, often inc;uding game. Plenty for veggies or pescies though.

I've eaten here twice and I don't really see what all the fuss is about. As gastro pubs go, it has a good menu, but execution could use some work more

Gastro pub. Nice relaxed bar with good beer selection. Separate restaurant area available for lunch and dinner. Very rich menu, including things like whole fresh crab at lunch time, and rabbit and other gamey meats on the dinner menu, which changes frequently. Great wine list too. more
